Register to the Papers of the Dean of Engineering, 1938-1945 War Production Training

call number 14.4/1:17a

These papers were processed between October 2000, and February 2001. They are related to Archival Collection 14.4/1:17, in that they form part of the tenure of Dean George Dewey Clyde. This collection deals almost totally with the training of military personnel on campus. Between 1940 and 1944, the college became a hub of activity for War Production Training. Some of this was undertaken prior to the outbreak of WW II, and some afterwards. Some of the training occurred under programs offered by the federal government and War Department, while others received funding from the state. Programs represented here include the National Youth Administration (NYA); Army Specialized Training Program (ASTP); Engineering, Science, Management War Training Program (ESMWTP); and the National Defense Training Program, and War Production Training Program, both operated by the Utah State Board of Vocational Education, with federal funds.
